Every year, it takes extra time, extra study, and extra investment to receive Board Certification. For example, if we catch a cavity early, a special resin will limit its growth. If we get it even earlier, a topical medication will stop it. Best of all, a mouth swab - when your child is very young - tells us unique ways to treat unique problems.
And that means your kid may never have a cavity. At Giggles and Grins, we use an "open bay" concept that accommodates several children at once. It takes the fear away because they model each other. Parents are sometimes a little amazed when their child - as young as three - walks back with one of our trained specialists all by themselves.

Who We Are
Report
That's not a catch-phrase. Years ago, the pediatric dentists at Giggles and Grins decided to implement "Board Certification" to raise the level of care they provide. Here's a closer look at how they're different. Born in Fort Stockton, Texas (aka the Wild, Wild West), Dr. Sandra Armstrong grew up in a succession of small towns.
Why Board-Certified
Report
The answer's the same, in every field of medicine, across all specialties. The doctors who provide the latest tech and the newest approaches are pursuing higher knowledge. Constantly. In many cases, their ongoing quest is measured and validated by their peers.
Board-certified dentists are voluntary "lifelong learners", constantly tested to meet and maintain this standard of excellence - even though it requires an annual investment of time and money.It's not easy, and it's not average. Less than 20% of all dentists are board-certified. Here are a few of the benefits your kids will gain from these higher standards.

Pediatric
Report
You can tell the difference as soon as you walk in the door. According to Dr. Amy Watts, The thing that surprises parents is how much fun their children have. We make sure everybody realizes immediately this is a happy place. Dr. Sandra Armstrong adds, There's no drill-and-fill sound. No funky dental smell.
Adolescent
Report
Why would a parent bring their teenage child to Giggles and Grins? Dr. Watts has a theory: Our Board Certification - the extra tests, the extra training - helps us provide the highest level of care. Honestly, we push ourselves to be the best. To Dr. Armstrong, it's about forging a lasting connection.
Special-Needs
Report
Dr. Capeci agrees. Years ago in dental school, I had the opportunity to shadow a pediatric who specialized in special-needs patients. I fell in love with the compassionate care that he gave them. He managed to meet their medical needs while making them feel as comfortable as possible. And it was inspiring - and educational - to see how they responded to him as a result.
